Merchant's description
Made with slightly more Cabernet Sauvignon that is usual for Grand Puy Lacoste, this 2005 offers elegant dark fruits and black cherry notes along with hints of pencil shavings and liquorice. A little more refined and restrained than many of the 2005s, but all the better for it - delicious.
